he went to Prey Nop as an ordinary farmer. He found a native house near the market, and has been witnessing for the Lord there ever since. Prey Nop is now an established outstation, and Christians from there have carried the gospel thirty miles farther to Sre Umbel. The Lord brought some people from that district down to Prey Nop where they heard the gospel from the Christians and gave their hearts to the Saviour. They in turn took the Good News back to their friends and neighbors, and now there is a fine group of Christians in Sre Umbel. Thus new work is started, new doors are opened, and new lives are transformed as the missionary follows the Lord who works with him. In 1930, after the petition had been sent to the Cambodian Government asking that the mission be regularly authorized, a new station was opened at Kratie in eastern Cambodia on the bank of the Me¬ kong River. This station was not included in the list of "existing stations" which were accorded offi¬ cial toleration when the decree was issued that re¬ stricted the activities of the mission. The missionaries were allowed to live at Kratie and study the Cambodian language, but the local officials were strenuously opposed to any active evangelism. They watched every move and strove in every way to hinder the missionaries from having access to the natives. No chapel was opened, though there had been one with a resident Cambodian colporteur there be-
fore the missionary came. This colporteur was arrested and imprisoned for three months on the charge of insulting Buddha, and the people o£ Kratie and the district were intimidated in every way pos¬ sible. In spite of this opposition and persecution, the Lord brought into being a little church near Kratie. A group of Cambodians had heard the gospel through the colporteur before he was imprisoned. They were interested inquirers. Their leader was stricken with fever and internal trouble; the missionary prayed with him, and he was healed. This greatly strengthened his faith and that of his fol¬ lowers. Early in 1933 the missionary was permitted to visit these Christians, and though they were not allowed to have a chapel or meeting place, seventeen converts were baptized in the Mekong River, and the communion of the Lord's Supper was observed in a corn field on the river bank. Thus was begun the first church of Jesus Christ in eastern Cambodia.
